What will you do and how do you feel when you are in a crowded bus?In particular,when you have waited the bus for a long time on a hot day, when the bus comes near a bus stop,and many students rush into the bus. Many people push you into the bus or you push another person into the bus. When you get into bus,and the driver drives too fast and stops too quickly.Elder people can't have a seat and are unsteady. Many shorter people are sandwiched between sweaty men and smelly women.Seated people fan their hands or use their handkerchief to wipe their face. It is difficult to get out of the bus.

The Best Pet(by Michelle)

Cats make the best pets for three reasons.First of all,they are very quiet and sleepy.They don't race around the house to disturb you and your neighbors at night. They sleep all day and they never cry so loudly at home. Second,cats are very intelligent.When they want to take a walk ,they will go out by them selves. They always keep clean by themselves. If they feel cold ,they can turn off the tumble dryer switch and jump into it to keep warm.Thirdly,cats are cute. When you are sleeping, they come into your bed and they sleep in your arms. They are aloof,but while you feel sad,they are close to you. Inconclusion,if you want a quiet and intelligent pet that don't give you any problems,cats are nice choice to have.

Expressing Opinion..........by Amber

Expressing Opinion
Farmers shouldn’t use the chemical ractopamine on pork for three seasons.
Firstly, it’s harmful for human’s body. According to the Taipei Times, using the chemical will give people some symptoms such as racing heartbeat, dizziness, and headache, there is even one patient who has died.
Secondly, Taiwanese people have different diet habits than people from other countries. We eat animal’s internal organs, which might contain traces of the chemical, so it’s dangerous for Taiwanese people. I n my opinion, we should pay more attention to what we eat.
Lastly, I think using the ractopamine is against the natural rules. Human beings always do something for their benefits, but they don’t think about the natural rules. If we use the chemical on cattle, they will be changed. Nobody knows what will happen in the future. Maybe not only cattle, but human’s genes will also be transformed. What a big calamity that will be! I think we can’t fight with nature and we should follow the natural rules.
In conclusion, because of the three reasons discussed above, farmers shouldn’t use the chemical ractopamine on pork.

The Ideal Husband.....by Amber

The Ideal Husband
The ideal husband should have these characters. First, he should be honest. If he always tells lies to you, how can you trust him? I f there is no trust between you and him, how can you live with him? Therefore, honesty is a basic requisite.
Secondly, he should be responsible. A responsible person could give his family much attention and do his work well. He knows about himself, so he doesn’t bite off more than he can chew.
Finally, he should be smart. He remembers every memorial day and gives you a big present. He is a romantic person, and he always gives you a surprise to let you feel happy.
However, the ideal husband is just in the dreams. Don’t search for an ideal husband in the real, world. You will be disappointed.

Farmers shouldn't use the chemical ractopamine on pork for three reasons. First, ractopamine is harmful to human's body.Accroding to Taipei Times, pork wiyh ractopamine cause many symptoms such as racing heartbeat, dizziness, difficulty in breathing, headache, muscle cramp, vomiting, diarrhea, and high blood pressure. I think that Taiwanese eat pig's intestines so the symptoms will be more severe than other countries.Second, use the chemical ractopamine on pork will affect Taiwan's economy. In my view, if Taiwan does not ban ractopamine, it will cause many economic problems. When the U.S. pork come into Taiwan, many Taiwanese will buy the cheaper U.S. pork, and this will discriminate against the local pig farmers.Taiwan's restaurant will use the U.S.pork, and many Taiwanese will not eat out anymore. As a result, Taiwan's economy will go down very soon. Third, the ractopamine was banned before. I believe that Taiwan's government shouldn't be "U.S.-oriented." We shouldn't change our polices on banning ractopamine although the American pig farmers use ractopamine. In conclusion, because of the three reasons discussed above, farmers shouldn't use the chemical ractopamine on pork.

Third, the ideal hudband is honest. He tells me anything and shares his thougts, feelings, ideals,etc. He is faithful to me, and he does not have any sexual relationship with anyone else.He always realizes his promises to me,and he never lets me down.

Farmers shouldn't use the chemical ractopamine on pork for three
reasons. First, the ractopamine can damage consumers’ health. For example, people who eat pork with ractopamine have many symptoms such as racing heartbeat, dizziness, muscle cramp, high blood pressure and so on. A patient has even died from eating pork with ractopamine.
According to the” Taipei Times ” ,the ractopamine is banned in more than 160 countries. It means that most of the countries don’t allow using chemicals in food.
In my view, if the government bans pork with chemical, they need to make rules to prevent economy imbalance. Because when consumers don’t eat pork ,they might have beef…etc indtead.
In conclusion, because of the three reasons discussed above, farmers shouldn’t use the chemical ractopamine on pork.
